Customer Reviews
Enjoyed a fun kayaking session here with instructor Tyler. Everything was easy to arrange (I had booked in advance on the peak website), and we were in the water in no time. It was great to learn some new paddling skills from a experienced trainer, and I'm hoping to go back with more family and friends soon. I did get slightly soggy feet getting in the kayak, so water shoes are probably a good idea. I was particularly happy to hear the activities here can be adapted for all types of bodies and abilities - a big plus!
My daughter (age 7) had the most fantastic week at holiday club at Trafford watersports centre. She absolutely loved all the activities and the staff were wonderful. I think it is really excellent value for money and I'm already planning on booking again for next summer.
I have been coming here with my own kayak. Only today I was approached by someone on a boat telling me I cannot bring my own kayak, unless I pay at the reception (for Insurence purposes). Interestingly, I have been to reception several times in the past and the same as today, it has been and is closed. Very disappointing. Lakes and rivers should be ok to enter on your own kayak without having to pay - for non existent services!?
